I go through both the link and found history command short cuts and how to see when command is executed, but I want to store command output also in a separate file.
Please guide me.

The history file only shows what the person entered, not the responses from the computer. If you want a transcript of both input and output then you'll probably want to look at the script utility and launch it at the beginning of your session.
